Method:

On the Crucifix:
O Lord, in order to honour St. Joseph as he deserves, You have taken him body and soul to Heaven to Crown him with glory, thus signifying to the world, both visible and invisible, that You have made Joseph Your foster-father, the supreme steward of all Your possessions.
On the large (X) beads:
We beseech Thee, O Lord, that we may find aid in the merits of the Spouse of Thy Most Holy Mother, so that what we cannot obtain by ourselves may be given us through his intercession, who livest and reignest with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Ghost, One God forever and ever.  Amen.
On the small (0) beads:
Hail Joseph, Son of David, thou whose holiness surpasses that of all angels and saints, blessed art thou amongst men, thou who wert chosen to be the Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary of whom was born Jesus.
Glorious St. Joseph, now reigning body and soul in Heaven, protector of the Universal Church, pray for us poor sinners now and at the hour of our death.  Amen.
